| Good job everyone! Yesterday was kind of a wash for me. I didn't eat great all day and I didn't work out. But, I am going to brush the day off and start fresh today. Let's see how I do on Sunday. Good luck everyone!

Yay Dreama! CP, you know that you have that up and down syndrome, so next week, you're poised for a 3 pound loss
I dunno how I lost those four pounds but I actually gained one back today. Too many concurrent challenges have me weighing on three consecutive days this week... Then next week I'll be back on my Tuesday weigh-in schedule!

Well, I was up a pound instead of down a pound, but I must face the after Thanksgiving music. Funny thing was, I did great on Thanksgiving day, but struggled with the 2 or 3 days afterward. I think I had prepared myself mentally for the day, but next time I will also do more to prepare myself for the following days!
Mejai...you are amazing! HOW did you do THAT???
September - 5th-181, 12th-182.5 ,19th-179, 26th-178
October- 3rd-176.5, 10th-177, 17th-175.5, 24th-173.5, 31st-174
November - 7th-172.5,14th-173,21st-171, 28th-172

HI everyone!!
Welcome Kacey and Diana!
11/8 - 194
11/15 - 194
11/22 - 194
11/29 - 194
Well, I really wish I could see another number up there. I know the main thing that helped me out by not going up was the fact that I was sick, so I have some work to do to get ready for Christmas food.
Don't worry Ashley, you've been doing fabulous and will get that weight back off in no time.
Congrats Michele for your loss this month!! way to go. You too Gwynethanne!!

Hi Subgurl,
Welcome to the one pound per week challenge. This is very simple... the philosophy here is that slow and steady weight loss is more likely to be sustained over the long run. We just weigh in each week... I believe weigh-in is Monday, but since I'm also participating in the biggest loser challenges, I usually weigh-in on Tuesdays.
We are just here to be a supportive group... not a lot of rules to this challenge other than checking in periodically with your progress, and coming to get or give support to the other challengers.
I would encourage you to continue to use the food tracker and try to squeeze in some exercise each day. Another challenge for that is the Sparkguy's 10 minutes per day exercise challenge.
We hope to see you and wish you all the best on this journey to a new lifestyle!

Thank you Gwynethanne, I'll be weighing in on Monday. I always weight myself on Thursdays also guess I should have said that, huh. The kids live in Virginia. We get to see our son maybe two times a year but if we're lucky three. It's an 8 hour trip from Springfield, OH to VA. His job makes it difficult for him to get away. They're home safely now but I sure do miss him. Next year he'll be with us for Christmas and spend Thanksgiving with his wife's parents. Thank you for the reminder of Monday. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. You have a lovely name.

Hello:
I did have a great Thanksgiving day. Hope you did as well. My son and his wife made it home but had to return to VA this morning. I've cried a few tears but that's not unusual and I've been tempted to eat everything I can find but I'm trying hard not to. I'll be weighing myself again Thursday morning. I've tried to be good let's hope the scales says I have been. I'll be crossing fingers, toes and my eyes.(giggles) Will keep you posted and good luck to you, I'm sure you'll have lost and be all smiles..

Slow is wonderful, and stable good. Just keeping i off is a chalange in itself. I've been the 6 months to lose 35lbs, just to see i come back on in 5. Not again. As long as the  or none than I've won.
Enjoy your Turkey Day! (dang where's the turkey emoticon) I guess this will do.

Just call me "steady as she goes, matey". I'm glad it wasn't up tho because I had ALOT of sodium this last weekend and am still a little puffy. I am hoping to lose a couple pounds by the end of the year, but I will be happy to maintain over the Thanksgiving holiday.

Hi everybody! Great to see new faces since last week! Good luck to you! I think you are right that slow and steady is the trick, with a big emphasis on the STEADY part. A little every week adds up over time!
I lost 2 this week...my odd little pattern of going up a 1/2 before a bigger loss continues. Weird! But, I'll take it! I finished another set of 6 pounds with this loss, and went to Goodwill for my 'shopping' reward. I got 13 pairs of pants, and a bunch of shirts, too, for cheap, and all the pants were size 14 which thrilled me (I was needing 20's when I started!).
So, how many of us can lose our pound THIS week of Thanksgiving?? That will be a SPECIAL pound, won't it! Let's all try to do it!
September - 5th-181, 12th-182.5 ,19th-179, 26th-178
October- 3rd-176.5, 10th-177, 17th-175.5, 24th-173.5, 31st-174
November - 7th-172.5,14th-173,21st-171

Everyone enjoy your day.
